Can you drop an egg without breaking it?

This weeks challenge was to create a structure to keep an egg safe when it was dropped from a given height. We had to think carefully about the materials we choose to ensure our egg remained in one piece. There were some wonderful creations, children thought about several factors which would determine their success including how to slow down the speed of the fall, would the base provide enough padding and which materials would be suitable to ensure a safe fall. It was a great success and only one egg had a minor crack! We can’t wait to see what our next challenge has in store for us!
